I zoomed way in on the "yellow" section and this is what I see.

Here’s another optical illusion, look at the cat. At first glance she is laying down, however if you look harder she could be jumping and be mid air.

This is an interesting one - it is a Tatra 103 aircooled diesel V12 engine developed during the Second World War for German vehicles, tucked away inside The Tank Museum's Vehicle Conservation Centre in Bovington. It displaced 14.8 litres (903 cu in) and produced 210 hp. This engine was most notably used in the Sd.Kfz.234 8x8 armored car. The aircooled diesel V12 concept is interesting because Germany only used petrol in its other armored vehicles.

I don’t want to know what you were looking for when you found those pictures. 🤔

So dang hot the cactus is leaving!


GUADALCANAL.
Warehouse Captured by Marines, Guadalcanal, circa 1942.
“HOME ON GUADALCANAL---Home was never like this, but U.S. Marines on Guadalcanal in the Solomon Islands are making themselves “at home” in this warehouse built by the Japanese and captured when the Leathernecks landed here.” "A Japanese building that we have occupied." (Official USMC photograph)




Standing more than 210ft tall, created with no help from humans, this gigantic rock off the coast of Australia is an adrenaline junkies dream.
Hundreds of climbers and slackliners travel to the Totem Pole at Cape Hauy, Tasmania each year to get their adrenaline pumping as they scale the rock.
The Totem Pole is a naturally occurring formation called a sea stack, a steep and often vertical column of rock, found in the sea or near the coast and formed by erosion.
